I could care less about All Star game accomplishments. Garvey did a couple things better than Perez...and Perez did a few things better than Garvey. I stand by my statement that they were similar players whose overall accomplishments were similar. I don't think either one is a hall of famer. Both played on the two best teams in the NL in the 70s...Reds and Dodgers. Both played in 5 World Series' with two teams. Perez won 2, Garvey won 1. I mean you can fix their stats however you want to. You mention postseason batting average....but I can just as easily say Perez drove in 11 runs in World Series play nearly doubling Garvey's total of 6. Both were very good players who I think are not hall of fame players.
This is borderline retarded .Garvey hit .318
in the World Series. Perez hit .242 in the World Series.That's an 76 point difference.Anybody knows Cincy was a powerful offensive team,and the Dodgers were a mainly pitching team.In that situation what would you expect would happen to RBI.I mean ,hell Garvey has 36 World Series Hits versus Perez' 23.They both played in 5 world Series.Dodgers choked in WORLD SERIES in 74,77,78..So not many people to knock in.Garvey hit .356 in the NLCS VERSUS PEREZ' .234.GARVEY HAD 21 RBI VERSUS PEREZ 14.GARVEY HAD 8 NLCS HOME RUNS VERSUS 3 FOR PEREZ.Anybody who played for Cincy in the 70's is gunna get a huge RBI bias in stats.Garvey had 32 nlcs hits versus 18 for Perez.Garvey hit 76 points better than him in the World series,and Garvey hit 122 points better THAN HIM in batting average in the NLCS.THEY AREN'T CLOSE. PEREZ DOESN'T EVEN QUALIFY (MINIMUM 100)IN THE HOF monitor.He has a 81 VERSUS GARVEY'S 130.5.YEAH THAT'S REAL CLOSE YOU HALF ******.That's not name calling.Anybody can observe it's half retarded to write what you did.
